Help Freely Foundation

The Help Freely Foundation has created a platform and browser application (available for Firefox and Chrome) that allow people to raise funds for the causes they care about most every time they shop online, and what's best: It doesn't cost the user any extra money! You pay exactly the same price, at the same online store, but the outcome is entirely different, as a percentage of what you spend will go to a nonprofit of your choice. They also intend to change the mindset of people, hoping to end up with a large social network of people that conciously decide to make these two extra clicks when they shop online, being aware of the huge positive impact this can have. They currently have nearly 6000 shops connected and operate in 15 markets and seven languages.

Socialvest

When you join Socialvest, a percentage of everything you buy goes directly into to your Socialvest account. From there, you can donate your Socialvest giving dollars to causes that matter to you the most. And with hundreds of retailers including Amazon, Target, Nordstrom and Best Buy (just to name a few) and 1.5 million causes to give to, making a difference has never been easier.
You're going to spend money anyways, so why not purchase on purpose, right? We're big believers that small change can make a big impact, so sign up for a free Socialvest account and begin making a difference through your everyday purchases.
